 Bookreporter.com - FIEND by Harold Schechter
FIEND concerns Jesse Pomeroy, "The Boston Boy Fiend," who terrorized that city in the late 1800s through a series of increasingly brutal attacks upon young boys, which eventually and perhaps inevitably gave way to murder.
Although Pomeroy is long dead, Schechter eerily and frighteningly brings him to life --- to the point that the reader feels as if Pomeroy is still out there where the buses don't run.
Schechter expertly explores the gumbo of influences that coalesced into the monster, the FIEND named Jesse Pomeroy, that was unleashed upon Boston in the 1870s.

Pomeroy tortured and murdered children in Boston in the 1870s.
Schechter ably portrays the "living death" of Pomeroy's captivity (he served 53 years, making repeated escape attempts, and had become a media curiosity by the 1920s), and captures the poignancy of the infirm Pomeroy's release, in 1929, to a prison farm, where he remained until his death in 1932.
